Saturday I saw Dune at the Egyptian Theater in Hollywood. It was a packed house. Fantastic to see it on a big screen with an audience. That movie is a glorious mess.

Some great choices. I would have never classified "The Station Agent" as a buddy film - but it sure is. My favorite has got to be Silver Streak Drama: Dog Day Afternoon Action: Point Break Western: C'mon, there's the one and only...

Getting criticism can be painful. This has been an enlightening back-and-forth for me to read. Something I have always liked about this forum.

I wonder why? It's such a minor part of post production. Creating more issues during production seems counter-productive.

Nice find! One of my fav's is "Waiting For Guffman". I just watched "Murder in the First" for the first time a few days ago.

First I want to thank you for staying engaged here. I admire that. This is exactly what I feared: The original shows character and individual speech patterns. The revision is emotionless and even directs the reading of the line. There are thousands of screenplays out there that use this...

You're not getting a lot of love from the writers here. $75 to have AI provide insights on my characters. Over 10 pages of notes. And if I'm interested in making my dialogue more natural, your AI program can do that. For another $75. And then another $75 for the AI program to analyze if my...

No. It's not normal. Not industry standard. You make this guy seem like an unprofessional, talentless jerk - someone you should have never worked with.

Welcome, Derek.

Great to "see" you back here, don.

I first saw "Eraserhead" at a midnight screening in January 1978. "Blue Velvet" is one of my favorite films of all time. I worked three days on "Wild at Heart" "Dune" is a terrible movie that I really, truly love.

I think my screen name tells the story. It isn't directorofphotographyrik. Your mentor suggests you make a proof of concept to show at AFM. What is the concept you would prove you can accomplish?

Aspiring Mogul playing the victim. This is not supported by facts. This is you playing the victim to excuse your lack of forward motion on making a movie. I suspect you didn't even read my post about it. The forum regulars have been very supportive of you and your proposals. I am the only one...

HBO has "MoviePass, MovieCrash"

No, you're not. We are all contributing to your 15 year long loop. Because you are not a film maker you misunderstand much of what you're told. I know, because you misunderstand most of what I tell you. Then you talk to others and misunderstand them because you are asking (and getting) advice...

What a cast. Almost 2 years old and I've never heard of it. I'll check it out...

What I learned by NOT going to film school: Write a 5 to 7 page script and make the movie. I understand what you're trying to do better than most here. And I can see value in this. This isn't what an aspiring producer or director would do - but in YOUR situation it makes some sense. Filming a...

I think filming a table read and rehearsal is a total waste of time. I'm happy that you have a mentor who agrees with your choices. I hope you can actually do this someday.

I've done TV to Movie. Now Movie to TV M*A*S*H would be my favorite. I didn't see it in its original release - first watched it during the lock-down of 2020. I enjoyed Ash vs The Evil Dead and tolerated The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Fargo is great but I's hardly an adaptation of the movie. So...

Like what is the shoot date. Now it looks like Mogul might be in Los Angeles in November. So my suggestion is for him to shoot local. Get it done by mid-February.
